A GocM QrsaTioN.—A correspondent of Ap
pleton’* Journal U in u r.ttht r unsettled slate ol
ln.iuJ a.-, to whether the contraction ‘‘don’t,” Is
itully ungrammatical when used iu the third per
son. The contraction "wou’t” he thinks more
objectionable than “don’t. ’ As the former is a
contraction of “ Will not, 1 ' he makes the novel
suggestion that it he called “ wiu’t” instead ot
“won’t," that being more in accordance with prin
ciple and with the true spelling. For instance,
“i win’t go out this evening”—that has the merit
oi novelty, II nothing else. This writer is in as
great u quandary as was the country hardware
merchant who wanted to send to the city for two
tailois’ geese or gooses, which seemeth beet. lie
sal dowu und wrote the order thus:
“ Please send me two tailor’s gooses.”
ilul he didn't like the grammar and was afraid
lie should he luughtd at, so he destroyed the order
and wrote:
“ Phase send me two tailois’ geese."
After he had deposited the letter in the office,
he was much troubled iu mind lest he should have
a couple of live geese sent him, puichased ol some
luilor ; so he returned to tne pcslollice, got th*
letter uL and destroyed It, aud wandered two
days in a maze ol doubt und perplexity as to how
lie should ever get an order oil so as to be under
stood, and grammatically worded. At last, in
ili spcraiiou, he sat dowu and wrote :
“ Please send me one tailor’s goose— aud, and m
it, send me another one just like it.”
That hit the goose on the head and the man got
Ins geese, or his gooses, or his one goose und an
other 0110 A correspondent ot the Washington
Capital, a whiic ago, much exercised ou Ihispoint,
sen I the story ol the merchant to that paper lor
decision on the quc6liou. llut it aflected the
editor, like all others who had pondered on It—
pondering seemed to make matters woise. lie
said “the goose hung too high” for him. He
consulted thirteen unabridged dictionaries, ency
clopedias, and learned tteatises on ornithology,
and luund the question gettiug deeper and deeper
the more he studied it. llis conclusion, after
much research, was this:
“ Sometimes we believe the plural should be
goose, and then we don’t. We don’t no more fre
quently than we do. We will keep our inquiring
friends advised of oitr progress.”
——
How IT IS W ITU THE ILLINOIS FaUUHRS.—A
Chicago correspondent of the Boston Globe,
writing about Illinois farmers, says: They are
poor, they wear thin and old clothes, and they ure
eternally borrowing at ten per ceut. Such a one
owns a farm worth $20,000. He raises fifteen
thousand bushels ot corn, aud alter paying his
tuxes und outstanding bills, be has about S6OO left
to represent the value of his own labor, wear and
tear ot farming implements, and interest on capi
tal invested. The agent of an Eastern insutance
company lends a farmer SI,OOO on a quarter sec
tion ; at the close ol the year, the produce of the
one hundred and sixty acres has paid the hundred
dollars interest and taxes, and a couple of hun
dii and dollars to spare, and all the time the market
value of that land is depreciating. The farmer
ret s these things, and exculpating himself puts
the blame on the railroads. But tin* truth is that
Illinois Immero ate wa-U.lul and extravagant to a
degree not dreamed of in New England. During
the war th<*y bought pianos lor their daughters,
and they have not yet gotten over the h*abita of
that time ; jThe women dress well, but they cook
fearfully. This poverty of the farmers, from
whatever cause it may come, is gradually produc
ing its effect on other branches ot business. They
buy less. The consumption of dry goods is fall
ing oil. They buy fewer agricultural implements.
So the country merchants are also beginning to
complain, and the feeling against the railroads is
growing more general and intense. But the roads
rcpiesent a capital of $.’50,000,000. They are
united and able, and rely upon the conservatism
of the courts, aud decline to modify their rates,
or to yield to popular clamor, or a lot of disor
ganized farmers.
From the Grifliu News we learn that the jury in
the ease ol Giant, Alexander it Cos., vs. the Grif
fin and North Alabama Railroad, brought in a
verdict for the plaintiffs lor SIO,OOO in stock, late
on Saturday night. The tacts, as we understand
them, are about these: The plaintiffs sued the
road tor SIO,OOO in stock and SIB,OOO for balanc #
due them e>u contract. The defendants admitted
the validity oftbe matter of the stock, but claimed
that as plaintiffs had withdrawn their convict
foice, and retarded the completion of the road
keVeiul mouths alter the time specified in the
contract, that it had been injured more than $18,•
COO cl. imed by tbe plaintiffs. This was tbe state
ment of the case submitted to the jury, and upon
it tin y louud their verdict. It will doubtless be
carried to the Supreme Court.
iiTot the thirty-seven States of the Union
only twelve of them have Democratic Governors
vie: Delaware, James Ponder: Georgia, James
Milton Smith ; Indiana, Thomas A. Hendricks;,
Kentucky, Preston H. Leslie; Maryland, Wm
Pinkney Whyte; Missouri,Silas Woodson; Neva
da, L. R. Bradley; New Jersey, Joel Parker ; Ore
gon, LaFayette F. Grover; Tennessee, John C
Brown; Virginia, Gilbert C. Walker; West Vir
ginia, John J. Jacob.
These twelve States represents a population of
10,728.168, according to the census of IS7o—lack
ing 1,077,000 of being one third of the whole pop
ulation of the States.
Lite insurance folks will do well to make
a note of decisions of the courts from time to
time. A case was recently decided in New York,
involving au interesting point A widow sued on
two policies ou the life of her husband and the
defense was that Ihc premiums had not all been
paid when due, the time having been extended by
an agreement with the general agent of the com
pany. The court decided that while it is not com
petent for a general agant to revive a lapsed poli
cy, he may make auy agreement as to the terms,
provided the payment is not deferred until aftei*
the time fixed in the policy. Hence £ verdict for
tbe plaintiff in the sum of $17,000.
The New York World don’t endorse Colfax, by
auy means. It says:
The defense ol Colfax sinks him beneath pity,
beneath contempt. Oakes Ames’ $i,300 deposit
ed by Ojllsx, June 22, ISGB, he pretends to have
received or rather SI,OOO ol it, a single greenback,
a present Irom George F. Nesbitt, of New
York, uow dead, in a letter now destroyed, wh'ch
the writer said he wrote without the knowledge
ol ary other persou !
The defence is a palpable lie, of contemptible
Ingenuity, lie fortifies it by the recollection of
his sister and siep-ia'.Ler, whose evidence, if line,
show* that even tbeu Co,lax knew the measure
of his guilt, and w ithin bis own family chile was
a hypocrite.

People live to a great age—in the newspa
pers. Here, now, is Mrs. Cassider Yeates,
aged 100 years, 3 months, who was present at
Washington’s inauguration as President of
the United States. She has just died, at Cin
cinnati.
The body of a young lady has been placed

A portion of the wording of the indictment
against Miss. Susan B. Anthony, for illegal

Statute of the United States of America, in
such cases made and provided.
A California widow lately went for a youth
who had wooed and won her, byt was dis
posed to conquette, with a pistol and a mar
riage license. She took a clergyman with
her who was ready to preach a funeral sermon
or perform a marriage ceremony at the same
price. The young man choose the latter.
Fremont, now under indictment in France
for fraud, had his character analyzed once by
a California orator, who styled him, “A states
man who never made a speech, a general who
never fought a battle, a path-finder who al
ways lost his way, and a millionaire not worth
a continental d —n.”
One of the characters in a work of George
Elliott is made to say: It's a poor work
allays settin’ the dead above the livin’. We

before-hands instid of beginnin’ when we’re

A young man who applied at the recruit
ing station in one of the far Western States
for enlistment, was asked “if he could sleep
on the point of a bayonet,” when he prompt

used in Lisbon would kill farther than any
shooting iron he ever saw.”
A Maine young lady visited the President at
the White "House and writes to the Portland
Press: He gave me his autograph with a
•mile and a shrug of the shoulders : The only
objection I have to complying with your
desire is that it obliges me to put on my glas
ses, and they make me look so very old to the
ladies.
The Washington Capital (Don Piatt’s pa
per) gets off the following on Henry Wilson,
Vice-President elect. The allusion, of course,
is to his Credit Mobilier stock speculatien :
There was a pious old Pump in Natick,
Who acted in stocks quite erratic,
And swore on his life
They belonged to his wife—
This solemn old pump up in Natick.
“That’s where the boys fitter college,” said
the professor to Mrs. Partington, pointing to
a schoolhouse.
“Did they ?” said the old lady with ani
mation. “Then, if they fit for the College be
fore they went, they didn’t fight afterwards ?”
“Yes,” said he, smiling and favoring the
conceit; “but the fight was with the head, not
with the hands.”
“Butted, <£d they ?’’ said the old lady.
A well known, bald-headed banker, who
always prides himself on being a self-made
man, during a recent talk with a friend had
occasion to remark that he was the architect
of his destiny. “What d-did you s-say ?
asked a friend who stutters. I say with pride
that lain a self-made man—that I made my
self” Hold? interrupted a friend, “w-while
you were m-making yourself, why the Dick
ens d-did didn’t you p-put some more h-hair
ou the top of y-your h-liead.
This rather Pecksnifßan anecdote of the
Vice-President is related by the Washington
Sunday Chronicle: “The Credit Mobilier in
vestigation has given us many strange and
new characters, but it remained tor Mr.
Schuyler Colfax to enact the role of “Truthful
James.” The honorable gentleman called on
a friend the other day and sent up his card,
bearing the following inscription: "Your sor
rowful but trutliiul friend, Schuyler Colfax.”
This last feat of the Vice-President throws
Bret Harte into the shade.”

These pumps are made in exactly the same man
ner as our ordiuary wood pumps, with the excep
tion that they are furnished with a Cylinder or
made of Iron, enameled with
Porcelain, which presents a hard, smooth surlace
to the leather packing of the plunger. This—the
most valuable improvement in wooden pumpa
ever invented—increases their durability fourfold.

the plurger, prevents the wear of the packing.and
renders the operation of pumping much easier. A
